SLB and AIQ Partner to Advance Development and Deployment of Agentic AI Solution Across ADNOC's Subsurface Operations

SLB and AIQ will collaborate to develop and deploy AIQ's ENERGYai agentic AI solution across ADNOC's subsurface operations. ENERGYai combines large language model technology with cutting-edge agentic AI, trained for specific workflows across the upstream value chain. The solution aims to boost productivity and efficiency, with early indications showing a 10x increase in seismic interpretation speed and a 70% increase in precision. Deployment is set to commence in Q4 2025.

Global energy technology company Schlumberger (SLB) and AIQ, an Abu Dhabi-based AI champion for the energy sector, have announced a strategic collaboration to advance the development and deployment of AIQ's ENERGYai agentic AI solution across ADNOC's subsurface operations. The collaboration, which involves a $340 million contract, aims to enhance productivity and efficiency in ADNOC's upstream operations [1].

Built on 70 years of proprietary data and knowledge, ENERGYai combines large language model (LLM) technology with cutting-edge agentic AI, which is trained for specific workflows across ADNOC's upstream value chain. Early indications from a test environment using 15% of ADNOC's data showed a seismic agent achieving a 10x increase in the speed of seismic interpretation and a 70% increase in precision [1].

The collaboration will see AIQ and SLB jointly design and deploy new agentic AI workflows across ADNOC's subsurface operations, including for geology, seismic explorations, and reservoir modeling. These workflows will be supported by SLB's Lumi™ data and AI platform, which enhances data access, streamlines workflows, and scales AI solutions seamlessly [1].

A scalable version of ENERGYai is under development and is expected to be deployed in Q4 2025. This version will include AI agents covering various tasks within subsurface operations. The partnership reflects a shared commitment to innovation, operational excellence, and data-centric energy supply, delivering business impact at scale for ADNOC and accelerating the impact of AI-driven energy transformation [1].
